Schröder + Sylvie Schenk

In the organizer's words:

This is the third part of the new four-part series "Schröder +" at the ROMANFABRIK, curated and moderated by Frankfurt literary critic Christoph Schröder. He has not selected recent new publications for this series, but rather authors he particularly appreciates, whose specific biographical experiences are reflected in their literary work in a special way. Schröder is interested in combining an exhibition of works and a portrait, which he would like to discuss in detail with the authors. This also applies to Sylvie Schenk, who was born in Chambery/France in 1944 and has lived in Germany since 1966. Her novels are slim, autobiographically based, tell of ramified family stories, and walk a very fine line between comedy and tragedy, on which Sylvie Schenk balances artfully in a concise language. She was shortlisted for the German Book Prize in 2023 with her novel Maman(Hanser Verlag).

With the kind support of the Cultural Office of the City of Frankfurt and in cooperation with JOURNAL Frankfurt.
